I just booked a D class ticket and was curious if the Limo service will collect and/or drop off at a Railway Station (Reading) from LGW.

Anyone got any ideas?

Don't see why not. All they need is a post code to find you and assess the journey time.

Given my experience finding limos at non-residential addresses(primarily in NY - I suspect Tristar will be better though), I wish you luck identifying exactly where at Reading station you will find the car. I would suggest giving the FC team your cell phone number and making sure the driver has this. I suspect it will save you many trips across the railway lines!

We're booked on a J + Companion ticket (our first time) and were really pleased to be told they will pick us up in Wolverhampton! If there drivers can find us in Wolves I'd hope they can find you somewhere that is local to them.

That begs a questions ... just how far will they go [:o)]

Full details here. but basically : Any mainland UK destination in counties south of and including Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Powys, and Ceridigion.

Wow any address in Florida ... that means I can go to Key West. Yippeeeeeeeee [^]

Yup - both LAX and SFO also collect from any address in the whole of California! [:0]

For some reason I had it in my head that the limo service was the Greater London area only. As they state they will travel south of Powys I should be okay for a car to Glamorgan then...

I'll call them in the morning and ask, thanks guys.

I got the limo to meet me off a 1.99euro ryan air flight at Stanstead and takeme to LHR once - no issue.

This applies if you use miles to book the limo[n]

does a limo service operate for manchester ucs flights? and if so will it pick up from Harrogate?

Well I just booked a limo from Gatwick to Swansea. You can safely say I am rather impressed with this service. I had to call the UK number as the Caribbean one kept going to voice mail (how very unusual here).

Im rather surprised they will go such a distance but I'm not complaining.

Don't forget, we didn't have Upper Class at all from MAN until this year!

My expectation would be that car transfers are available for MAN flights, and someone hasn't updated the content on the website.

I'm pretty sure Tristar has a base in Manchester, so I'd be surprised if VS didn't offer transfers.

Cheers,
Mike

So just for my clarity - if I book a limo with miles in addition to an UC reward flight it won't take me to Kent ?

Not quite - see here:

"London and Home Counties"

They certainly picked up from Swindon last Christmas

According to the page:

WHAT IS THE RANGE OF THE CHAUFFEUR CAR SERVICE?
Flights to/from Heathrow or Gatwick

Any mainland UK destination in counties south of and including Lincolnshire, Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Powys, and Ceridigion.

For UK addresses outside this range, the car will take you to/from the closest regional airport from the following list, and you will need to arrange a connecting flight: Inverness, Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Teesside, Newcastle, Leeds, Bradford, Manchester, Belfast, Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey.

It'd be daft if they'll take you to MAN to connect to a LHR/LGW flight, but not if you're flying VS from MAN??

Cheers
